After a discussion on IRC, I'm not sure if this is such a good idea. It was noted that we'll get shearing on fast-forward and also when I'm scanning through a video in my NLE. More reasons the X server should export more information about what's going on in the hardware... -- Billy Biggs [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.billybiggs.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
